Overview
fools-match is a reminder that score comes from structure, not spectacle. Boards breathe when you remove blockers, fix edges that generate singletons, and build central clusters that let gravity fuse matches into cascades. You don’t spam specials—you place them where they act like editors: a bridge that connects split stacks, a repair that turns a noisy corner into a contributor, a rebalance that fixes a hue drought. The visual grammar is clear and friendly, and the cadence that works is three-part: prepare, align, clear. Delaying one tempting detonation often yields two better routes once lanes open. The game never cheats; misses teach calmly—stalled objectives mean the board needs architecture, lingering singles mean adjacency lacks care, and weak cascades mean bases stayed too narrow. Respect those signals, rebuild space, and watch score climb as clears look inevitable.
